    So when you press f12 you get into the boot menu which shows this screen

    I want to switch to achi and do a clean install while retaining the ability to do the hardware scan that is shown in this screen, i dont care about the other software that resets or repairs, is it possible to keep this or reinstall it somehow?

    I disabled the ssd in the bios as a test and the support os recovery was not an option in the f12 boot menu anymore so it seems it is grabbing files from the ssd
